Ya I get it.

I just think that if I was a ski company I would have at least 1 full rocker ski in the regular stable of skis. eg. 4FRNT and the Hoji collection. But then I've drank deep from the full-rocker kool-aid

100% agree with you on that!

I think there is a reason each brand that comes out with a full rocker ski has developed a cult like following behind that specific ski.

New graphics look so good

Anyone thinking the Meridian will be dropped Aug 1? Or is it a reserve release sometime later?

Not sure why they don’t have the Meridian in the regular line up (and the the Chipotle Banana for that matter).

The Nanner seems to have made a permanent spot in the reserve. I would assume that it would be there 8.1. I snagged the Merdian last year and I will forever have a reverse DD ski in the quiver.

Being scared of “full rocker” is dumb. My Nanners (as I have said over and over) are the funnest skis known to man which is why I need a pair of Meridians and a couple other pairs just in case. Lol.

Ya I don’t get people who don’t like rocker. Same as I don’t get people who like -11cm mounts. To each his/her own I guess.

I’ve had rocker in the quiver every year for the last 10 years.

Used to own the 117mm Meridian (and Comis, Bibby’s, PBJ’s, and Deathwishes) so I’m familiar with how good Moment skis are.

Now could be the time for some 107mm Meridans to slot between my rockered Ravens and Hojis. And to get the quiver back up to 10 skis.

I love full rocker skis, but honestly think that nanners/meridian should have a re-work. I skied nanners extensively for 2 seasons and they are the least versatile rocker skis I had. They are very specific skis. I only like them in perfect pow conditions, or slightly chopped pow conditions. I hate them in any other case. But even in pow some people complain about their tip dive, luckily I don't have this issue, probably cause I'm lightweight. From skis that I skied I can say that Faction CT 5.0 and 4FRNT Inthayne are far more versatile, but at the same level of stableness and playfulness. Never skied meridians, but I imagine they behave more or less the same overall. And that comes from a huge Moment fan, who currently has 5 pairs of their skis, owned more than a dozen through the years. I believe, Bibby/Wildcat shape-profile-stiffness is still one of the best ski engineering products that were ever created, even 12 years later they are still better or on par with the newest products. However nanners... not so much. Would love to see new full rocker ski from Moment

So interesting to see how subjective ski taste is. I love my CB’s and think they’re surprisingly versatile for their size and shape🤷♂️ to each their own! Shit, I liked them so much I skied them one season as a quiver of 1. Younger knees then!!🤣

Just got early access.

Chipotle Banana in the Reserve. CB in 178cm now (and 186cm and 193cm).

Alas, no Meridian.

Reserve skis come out every month or so in limited quantities. It's July. Hold tight....

[lrn2swim]

Everything looks great, if not very similar to last year. Makes sense to see the Commanders go skinny. The 92 is very intriguing but not sure how often I'd take em out here in PNW

Thanks for making a piste-oriented ski!

Unfortunately -- this is the year my DW112s really need replacing after stomping patrol rocks for a few years so I'll be showing love to fat sticks. Hope 92s stick around for next season.

Haha point taken. 2024 skis look great btw.

Great early access….everything looks great….Will be going for DW 104 this winter.

Hope 92s stick around for next season.

If people can handle them...they are stiff...

[K1mJ0ngTr1ll]

New collection knocked it out of the park. But thanks to the craigslist call out I found my Unicorn .

Will likely snag a new WC118. I miss that ski!

[jbrine]

Hot damn I was wanna rip the new commanders! Those sound exactly like the perfect fit for my quiver and some of my core days. I would love to even take these through a GS course and make all the old dudes in spandex do a double take. Turn em and burn em!

I just got a pair of commander 98s that now seem to be ready for a new home.

It’s interesting noting no more women’s tour skis.

Unsure of if I’m more excited about the prospect of a Commander 92 or the Deathwish 104 tour.

The Commander 102 sounds like a more functional ski for me than the 92 given that they’re pretty direct they don’t think the 92 is great off piste but it sounds like it would be very fun in the right conditions.

Looks like they just added some 164s to the mix for additional sizes. Makes sense to me as it simplifies things on Moments end. Although the Sierra Tour was a cool ski that I would love to see in a longer length and slightly stiffer flex for spring touring.

Tour skis are now unisex and come in shorter lengths to accommodate different folks.

The Bella Tour was essentially a shorter Wildcat Tour 108.

The Sierra Tour in its longer lengths was a DWT104.

Instead of making a bunch of super similar skis with different graphics we have simplified the line.

Any profile pics of the new Commanders?

I’m curious as to why the moment site is password-protected?

Because the official launch date is 8-1-23.

We are still making little tweaks to the site ensuring its 100% but giving early access to select customers and some pro accounts.

Updated camber profile pics now on the site.

Makes total sense and I don’t think it’s an issue - just noting it as a departure from prior years.
